Julie Hiner spent endless hours during her childhood lost in the pages of books. The only thing that took precedence over a book was her Walkman. Julie remains a hardcore 80s rocker at heart. Julie worked as a computer scientist, specializing in network simulation. On a break between contracts, she published an inspirational work of nonfiction, her own story of facing fear and anxiety on a bicycle in the European mountains. Julie now writes psychological horror/suspense heavily infused with hard rock and metal. She has published an 80s metal murder detective series, a 90s nostalgic serial killer novella, a death metal demon possession novella, and co-curated a horror anthology. Several of Julie's horror short stories have been published in anthologies. You can find her at KillersAndDemons.com serving up toxic cocktails of metal and murder.

It’s 1987. Hair is big. Everything glimmers. A park ranger makes a gruesome discovery in Waterton National Park—the roots of an endangered plant plunging deep into the torso of an atomic tangerine corpse. Fresh off the first serial killer case to grasp his hometown, Detective Mahoney is hurled into a series of murder scenes featuring human-plant creations. The corpses stack up. The similarities are undeniable. Mahoney attempts to blur the images of herbaceous-human concoctions crawling into the crevices of his mind with shots of bourbon at a glam rock bar in a deadbeat prairie town. Equipped with a firecracker criminal profiler and a meticulous medical examiner, Mahoney blends physical and behavioural science into his investigation. Does following his gut pay off, or does the garden of a horticultural madman with a passion for parasitic plants continue to flourish? FREE novella with newsletter sign-up.
